Clear storm damage from Benjamin's garden in Rochester

Fallen branches and overgrowth are blocking Benjamin's path; a few hours of help would make a big difference.

Rochester
I'm 73 and I have lived in this house in Rochester for 47 years. After the storm in February, two large branches and a fallen fence have blocked the back door and the garden path. I can no longer manage them myself because of arthritis. The council has told me it will be ten weeks before they can send someone. I'd feel much safer if it were cleared sooner. Help needed: a small team to cut, stack and carry away branches. I'll provide tea, sandwiches and the green waste bags. A few hours will do. Please ask me anything in the questions section. I'll answer honestly and quickly.

      Sending strength, Benjamin. Get well soon. After 24 years in farming I know how hard it's to ask for anything.
